Chapter 16: Chapter 14: Old and New Pt. 2

 [Noon, Courtyard]

Hyuri stood in the middle of the field not far from the courtyard. The image of Gabriel kept popping into his head. He couldn't focus on anything. He stared at the grass. A small breeze hit his body as he walked toward a bench to sit. Now, he had to step up his training even more.

"Gabriel won't lay a hand on anyone," Hyuri said out loud. "I will become stronger and then send him to the depths of Hell!"

A golden Aura surrounded him. He felt a small amount of pressure all over him.

[???, ???]

Hyuri woke up. The place was dark and hazy. He couldn't see a thing. He looked around the dark space attempting to find clues to where he was. Nothing. But a voice spoke out.

"Be not afraid, Mortal," the voice said.

All of a sudden a golden dragon appeared. The golden dragon illuminated the space slightly. But still, nothing to be seen. Hyuri looked up at the dragon.

"W-who are you?" Hyuri asked, slightly afraid.

"Hm... I am Fafnir a divine being of the Sacred Garden. It was time for me to appear."

"How did you get here?"

"Don't you remember? Your Sacred Mind was released."

Hyuri remembered. Kaizu was the one who opened Hyuri's "Sacred Mind". He knew something like this would happen.

"I remember now. So you must be..."

"Your Sacred Guardian. I am here to protect you. You may use me in combat. I follow your orders now."

Thanks to Kaizu, Hyuri had another thing to use against Gabriel. But he needed to find out how Fafnir could help him.

[12:10 PM, Forest]

Hyuri stood by the waterfall. He just stared at the water as it fell into the lake. And he remembered the cross that Satori found at the bottom.

"Who? Who would do such a thing? Sure, I didn't like him much... but killing him? That's insane."

Now, he felt like it was time to unleash Fafnir into this world. He closed his eyes.

"Let's hope I remember what Fafnir told me," he told himself. "Summoning: Begin! The golden dragon that lay dormant inside my soul! Appear! Sacred Guardian: Fafnir!!"

Hyuri himself began glowing a noticeable gold. He focused his energy in order to break the seal within him and summon Fafnir. Then, he appeared before him. The golden dragon he gazed upon earlier was now in front of him.

"So you're Fafnir?"

The golden dragon did not respond rather he shook his head as he levitated above the lake. Hyuri analyzed the golden dragon some more. Hyuri understood what he had to do now. He just needed to train. And train hard.

"So what can you do that can help me in battle?" Hyuri asked.

Fafnir opened his mouth, "I can lend you my energy and techniques. And, if we're in real trouble you can summon me."

Hyuri thought about it all. Techniques, energy. He was sold.

"Alright, let me use some of the techniques," Hyuri told the dragon.

Instead of telling him verbally, he gave all the information directly into Hyuri's mind.

"Alright! Firstly, focus my energy. Then, add yours."

A few short seconds later he was engulfed in gold light. He physically felt the Aura swirl around him. So this is Fafnir's energy, he thought.

"Sacred Art: Lightning Resonance: Divinity Strike!"

He snapped his right index and middle finger and summoned lightning a few yards in front of him. The impact created a small crater in the rock.

"Awesome!" He shouted.

"That is just a small fraction of my energy keep in mind," Fafnir informed.

"Let's try another one. Sacred Art: Lightning Resonance: Sacred Burst!"

He snapped again, this time arrow-like projectiles flew from the sky. All one hundred projectiles created craters smaller than the first one.

"Cool! Thank you, Fafnir!"

"Do not thank me. Thank the one who opened the pathway for me, Kaizu Kirigashi."

"I will soon enough. Now. Fafnir: Vanish!"

With those words alone Fafnir was reduced into a photon and returned to Hyuri's "soul".

A few days have passed by. Hyuri's friends have gotten used to the Academy now. Few students have claimed a "bad vibe" recently. Zone A student, Kaizu Kirigashi has voted to trace the root of the so-called "bad vibe".

April 19th, 2000 [5:35 AM, Track]

"You're Kaizu Kirigashi, right? You're a powerful guy," a female voice asked.

Kaizu turned around. She was covered with a black ragged cloak. Her face was hidden. Even the street lamps which surrounded the field couldn't reveal it. Kaizu wondered who would be out this early.

"Who are you?" Kaizu asked warily.

The woman stayed silent but walked closer to him. Kaizu conjured his usual sword in his right hand. He was ready for a fight. He didn't know if she would deliver so he stayed put.

"Just hear me out, Kaizu. I want no harm," she said.

Kaizu wasn't easily won over by anyone. He held strong until given an actual reason.

"Talk then. Tell me why I shouldn't decapitate you right here and now," Kaizu told her with a stern voice.

She took her hood off, revealing her face. Kaizu's eyes widened. His shocked face turned into a smirk.

"So, that's where you went. You're one of the missing students."

Eight students have disappeared since March. The Academy never acknowledged them. The students were up to find them. She was one of them. Her name was, Asuka Kadokachi. She was an older student in Zone A. She was sixteen.

"So, why show up now? What's with the cloak?" Kaizu asked.

"Well, since I can't really explain it allll~ Royce come on out!"

"Royce?"

A boy came out of the darkness. He seemed to be only a year or two younger than Asuka.

"Kaizu Kirigashi. I will say this once and only once. Be prepared for what is to come."

Kaizu readied his sword. He felt something was wrong. What's going on, he thought.

"Kaizu Kirigashi. I would like for you to join-

"Nope."

"I'm sorry, what?"

"I said no. I don't care how hard you try-!" He shot at them blade ready in hand.

"Fine, have it your way!"

Kaizu swung in an upward direction. But his attempt was quickly dissolved by Asuka's claymore.

"Dammit-!" Kaizu jumped back.

He began running in circles around them. His pace quickened every five seconds. He was only perceived as a blur now.

"Now, Khaos!" Kaizu yelled. "Spatial Disruption!!"

The blur that was Kaizu Kirigashi was now gone. The boy and Asuka looked in every direction... Except up. Kaizu held his blade horizontally and struck down on Asuka's claymore, cracking the blade in half.

"Heh. Come on, let's dance," Kaizu taunted.

He began running around them again. He wanted to keep their attention for a while.

"Spatial Disruption!!"

He was gone again. Then, appeared out of thin air. He shot at them as fast as a bullet from a handgun.

"Phoenix! Eternal Barrier!" The boy yelled.

A red transparent dome covered him and Asuka. The barrier seemed to have been covered in some sort of flame.

Bam!

Kaizu's sword collides with the fiery dome. He saw as the fire ate away at the blade. It was melting it. Kaizu threw away the entire sword. He stood back. A grin formed on his lips. He extended his arm and stuck out his palm.

"Go, Khaos! Spatial Disruption!"

After a few moments, had switched places with Kaizu.

"This'll be fun."
